Good Use For A Bad Chuck

My new grizzly Chuck us less than .002 when I checked it on the lathe, I am happy with that.

Welcome to the forum! I'm glad you got one that works for you, but am sorry to hear about the low quality of your chuck from Tormach. That is very disappointing! Unfortunately, I cannot see your pics. I have read recently about problems posting pics using the Tapatalk app, but do not know what the cure is.
Once again, welcome to the forum. It really is a very friendly and helpful place!
 
I initially that your were going to say you put it through a wall or something.
taptalk, I think what some one said is to use the paper clip and insert the photos so that they are uploade to the site vice linking to the TAPTALK site.
as I cannot see your pictures
was that a bunch of different pics or just post of 1.
 
this picture thing is really getting annoying....
 
Get an old Jacobs chuck on eBay. All my Jacobs chucks, no matter condition are a pleasure to use and hold nice and true, but I never bothered to indicate TIR. The one I use on my mill, a oil-dripping BP M-head, is always incredibly smooth because it gets drenched with spindle oil whenever I leave it in the spindle overnight.
 
Wow sorry about the problem chuck deal. Classic hit or miss china stuff. Tormach is usually pretty good about standing behind the stuff they sell im surprised they wouldn't take it back maybe swap for a different one. Re: Tapatalk always works beautifully for me. In fact its the ONLY way I can upload pics without a bunch of hassle resizing etc. and 99% how I access the forum.
 
Ok, that saved me from opening each of them in a quote.
And working with someone else, we found that if you attach the photo via the paperclip, it actually sends the photo HM rather than just linking the place stored on taptalk to your post.
as when you attach the other way you are just inserting a link to the file storage place on taptalk, I even verified this and can change the link on it to another picture if I want.
why it is visible while being quoted is unclear to me at this time.
